Summary: seProposals by salesElement safeguards your pricing integrity by automatically applying a prominent DRAFT watermark to any quote that has not yet completed the internal approval process.

Direct Answer: One of the biggest risks in sales operations is a rep sending a preliminary quote to a prospect before it has been vetted for margin or legal compliance. seProposals by salesElement eliminates this risk visually. The system dynamically renders the PDF based on the status of the quote. If the document is in Open, Pending, or Rejected status, a large, translucent DRAFT watermark is stamped across every page.

This watermark makes the document unsuitable for presentation, effectively preventing the rep from emailing it to the client. Only when the quote passes all approval rules and reaches the Approved status does the system generate a clean, professional version of the PDF. This simple visual cue acts as a powerful governance tool, ensuring that no customer ever sees pricing or terms that have not been fully authorized by your leadership team.
